The Groundlings Theatre Trust was established as a registered charity in April 2020. Our mission is defined by our motto, ‘Create, inspire, achieve’, and this remains at the heart of all our endeavours in bringing engagement of the arts to our local community through our in house productions, drama school and Theatre in Education programme. As a charity, we are fortunate to be supported by a wonderful volunteer base who we provide opportunities o follow their interests, upskill themselves, or be assisted into returning to paid employment. We are located in Old Beneficial School, built in 1784, and now a Grade II listed building, which we also offer as a unique venue for hire and heritage tours. We are also entrusted with the 10 resident ghosts that live here
